Curly by nature is more fragile and prone to breakage, but with a little “TLC” and the right products, it should be a breeze. Before you rush to cover your head with a scarf, try out this regimen for a curl moisture boost. Shampoo, condition, style, repeat! Jessicurl’s Gentle Lather Shampoo $16.95, 8 oz. - jessicurl.com Start off with a great shampoo to get rid of dirt and product build-up. Like the name suggests, this shampoo is so gentle, it barely lathers. Its formula cleanses the hair and scalp, but does not strip the hair of essential natural oils. What I love about it is that it comes in three scent choices; citrus lavender, island fantasy and no fragrance for sensitive users. This product line is vegan and so fresh that it spoils when it has been on the shelf too long.

The decadent line of Devacurl products is specifically made for thirsty curls that need more moisture. It is rich and creamy and perfect for getting the bounce back in your hair. The consistency derived from the chufa milk makes it the perfect detangler too. The soft scent makes for a soothing finish. Kinky-Curly Knot Today $11.99 - Target or Walgreens A leave-in conditioner is a must because it se als in the moisture from the wash and condition. Kinky-Curly is a conditioner that doubles as a leave-in. It keeps ends from splitting and fights frizz.
